5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

The man with the woman head 

Polynesian wallpaper made the face stand out, 

a mixture of Oriental and early vaudeville jazz poofter, 

forming a hard, beetle-like triangular chin much like a praying mantis. 

Smoky razor-cut, low on the ear neck profile. 

The face the color of a nicotine-stained hand. 

Dark circles collected under the wrinkled, folded eyes, 

map-like from too much turquoise eyepaint. 

He showed his old tongue through ill-fitting wooden teeth, 

stained from too much opium, chipped from the years. 

The feet, brown wrinkles above straw loafers. 

A piece of cocoanut in a pink seashell caught the tongue 

and knotted into thin white strings. 

Charcoal grey Eisenhower jacket zipped into a load(?) of green ascot. 

A coil of ashes collected on the white-on-yellow dacs. 

Four slender bones with rings and nails 

endured the weight of a hard fast black rubber cigarette holder. 

I could just make out Ace as he carried the tray and mouthed, 

"You cheap son of a bitch" 

as a straw fell out of a Coke, cartwheeled into the gutter. 

So this was a drive-in restaurant in Hollywood, 

So this was a drive-in restaurant in Hollywood, 

So this was a drive-in restaurant in Hollywood
